Mr. Chair, I think at this moment people are focused on the immediate need, although my colleague's question is an excellent one.
It is one thing to put out fires, but what we need is good fire prevention and good fire safety measures. I think that is what he is talking about.
The Filipino Canadian community is a very positive, a very caring community, a community that is very united, and people have a very strong network.
Getting past the immediate tragedy and building resilience for the future is something to which people will turn their minds. If any community can do it, I believe the Filipino Canadian community can, and perhaps we can learn some lessons that will apply to other situations of similar urgency.
